I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

It is better to offer no excuse than a bad one.

Adversity is the first path to truth.

Man is always prey to his truths. Once he has admitted them, he cannot free himself from them.

The truth. It is a beautiful and terrible thing, and must therefore be treated with great caution.

Lies run sprints, but the truth runs marathons.

Anyone who doesn't take truth seriously in small matters cannot be trusted in large ones either.

The most dangerous untruths are truths slightly distorted.

Peace is not something you wish for; it is something you make, something you are, something you do, and something you give away.

It is not truth that matters, but victory

Truth is a tendency.

The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple.

Comfort is no test of truth. Truth is often far from being comfortable.

The essence of being human is that one does not seek perfection.

It isn't enough to talk about peace; one must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it; one must work at it.

In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

Those who cry the loudest are not always the ones who are hurt the most.

A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.

Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist

Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth.

If you're gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty.
